Dermarite Silicone Dressing ComfiTel™ Silicone 4 X 7 Inch

Silicone Dressing ComfiTel™ Silicone 4 X 7 Inch

ComfiTel silicone dressing is a sterile silicone contact layer dressing sized 4 X 7 inch. It works well for buyers who need a gentle wound contact layer that adheres to intact skin without sticking to the wound, while allowing exudate to pass through to an absorbent secondary dressing. The semi-transparent, conformable rectangle design supports wound assessment and helps minimize pain during dressing removal.

Good Fit For

• Using a protective barrier between the wound and an outer absorbent dressing
• Managing wounds where gentler dressing removal is a priority
• Situations where visual wound assessment through the dressing is helpful
• Care settings treating venous ulcers, pressure ulcers, abrasions, burns, cuts, lacerations, or surgical and trauma wounds

Key Features

• Gentle silicone contact layer adheres to intact skin, not to the wound, for less disruptive dressing changes
• Porous mesh design lets wound exudate pass through to an absorbent outer dressing
• Helps reduce pain and risk of damage to the wound during wear and removal
• Comfortable, conformable dressing adapts more easily to the treatment area
• Semi-transparent construction supports easier visual wound assessment
• Sterile 4 X 7 inch rectangular format for individual wound care needs

Applications and Usage

• As a contact layer under an absorbent secondary dressing for exudating wounds
• Protecting fragile wound beds during dressing changes

• Use on cuts, lacerations, abrasions, and first or second degree burns
